Thanks Randy. All of these are wonderful. I’ll have to add the Jaguar and Astons to my collection.

@karl By and large, I like Frua's work especially his 1973 Phantom VI, which is a car I'd love to own if I had money. But this, with its bolt-on bits lacks that sublime beauty.

Nice find there, Karl ! It is very interesting and it still remains a beautiful automobile here, too.

Note the plate on the 1:18 Benz . Hermann Goering's similar car, made by Matrix, has a plate ending in 134431. Hmm.....
